Speaking with Rolling Stone, Vietnamese independent developer Dong Nguyen said he is now considering reinstating Flappy Bird into the Apple App Store and Google Play after removing the game in February.

Flappy Bird was a simple game that users played by tapping their screen. The point was to guide a bird through deadly pipes to attain the highest score possible. Though simple to learn, the game is very difficult to play. It became the No. 1 game on both mobile app stores and was raking in $50,000 daily in ad revenue before Nguyen decided to remove the game.

Nguyen, 28, told the magazine his decision came after receiving countless messages from users telling him the game was negatively affecting their lives, with many breaking their phones and losing their jobs over Flappy Bird.

Days after removing ultra popular mobile game Flappy Bird from the Apple App Store and Google Play, developer Dong Nguyen has finally given an explanation for his decision to kill the game: It was too addictive.

Security researchers are warning Android users not to install versions of Flappy Bird found in alternative app stores as they may contain malware that could lead to unwanted charges on their phone bills.
